4-6 Why are ratios useful? Ratios standardize numbers and facilitate comparisons. Ratios are used to highlight weaknesses and strengths. Ratio comparisons should be made through time and with competitors Trend analysis Peer (or Industry) analysis

4-7 What are the five major categories of ratios, and what questions do they answer? Liquidity: Can we make required payments? Asset management: right amount of assets vs. sales? Debt management: Right mix of debt and equity? Profitability: Do sales prices exceed unit costs, and are sales high enough as reflected in PM, ROE, and ROA? Market value: Do investors like what they see as reflected in P/E and M/B ratios?

4-8 Calculate D’Leon’s forecasted current ratio and quick ratio for Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities = $2,680 / $1,145 = 2.34x Quick ratio = (CA – Inventories) / CL = ($2,680 – $1,716) / $1,145 = 0.84x

4-9 Comments on liquidity ratios 2006E Ind. Current Ratio2.34x1.20x2.30x2.70x Quick Ratio0.84x0.39x0.85x1.00x Expected to improve but still below the industry average. Liquidity position is weak.

4-10 What is the inventory turnover vs. the industry average? 2006E Ind. Inventory Turnover 4.1x4.70x4.8x6.1x Inv. turnover = Sales / Inventories = $7,036 / $1,716 = 4.10x

4-11 Comments on Inventory Turnover Inventory turnover is below industry average. D’Leon might have old inventory, or its control might be poor. No improvement is currently forecasted.

4-12 Fixed assets and total assets turnover ratios vs. the industry average FA turnover= Sales / Net fixed assets = $7,036 / $817 = 8.61x TA turnover= Sales / Total assets = $7,036 / $3,497 = 2.01x

4-13 Evaluating the FA turnover and TA turnover ratios 2006E Ind. FA TO8.6x6.4x10.0x7.0x TA TO2.0x2.1x2.3x2.6x FA turnover projected to exceed the industry average. TA turnover below the industry average. Caused by excessive currents assets (A/R and Inv).

4-14 Profitability ratios: Profit margin and Basic earning power Profit margin= Net income / Sales = $253.6 / $7,036 = 3.6% BEP= EBIT / Total assets = $492.6 / $3,497 = 14.1%

4-15 Appraising profitability with the profit margin and basic earning power 2006E Ind. PM3.6%-2.7%2.6%3.5% BEP14.1%-4.6%13.0%19.1% Profit margin was very bad in 2005, but is projected to exceed the industry average in Looking good. BEP removes the effects of taxes and financial leverage, and is useful for comparison. BEP projected to improve, yet still below the industry average. There is definitely room for improvement.

4-16 Profitability ratios: Return on assets and Return on equity ROA= Net income / Total assets = $253.6 / $3,497 = 7.3% ROE= Net income / Total common equity = $253.6 / $1,952 = 13.0%

4-17 Appraising profitability with the return on assets and return on equity 2006E Ind. ROA7.3%-5.6%6.0%9.1% ROE13.0%-32.5%13.3%18.2% Both ratios rebounded from the previous year, but are still below the industry average. More improvement is needed. Wide variations in ROE illustrate the effect that leverage can have on profitability.

4-19 Calculate the Price/Earnings, Price/Cash flow, and Market/Book ratios. P/E= Price / Earnings per share = $12.17 / $1.014 = 12.0x P/CF= Price / Cash flow per share = $12.17 / [($253.6+$117.0) ÷ 250] = 8.21x

4-20 Calculate the Price/Earnings, Price/Cash flow, and Market/Book ratios. M/B = Market price / Book value per share = $12.17 / ($1,952 / 250) = 1.56x 2006E Ind. P/E12.0x-1.4x9.7x14.2x P/CF8.21x-5.2x8.0x11.0x M/B1.56x0.5x1.3x2.4x

4-21 Analyzing the market value ratios P/E: How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of earnings. P/CF: How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of cash flow. M/B: How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of book value equity. For each ratio, the higher the number, the better. P/E and M/B are high if ROE is high and risk is low.

4-22 The Du Pont system Focuses on expense control (PM), asset utilization (TA TO), and debt utilization (Equity multiplier.)

4-25 Potential problems and limitations of financial ratio analysis Comparison with industry averages is difficult for a conglomerate firm that operates in many different divisions. “Average” performance is not necessarily good, perhaps the firm should aim higher. Seasonal factors can distort ratios. “Window dressing” techniques can make statements and ratios look better.

4-26 More issues regarding ratios Different operating and accounting practices can distort comparisons. Sometimes it is hard to tell if a ratio is “good” or “bad”. Difficult to tell whether a company is, on balance, in strong or weak position.
